Chelsea boot issues

My beloved tan leather chelsea boots have bitten the dust! They were real leather, from next about two years ago, and I wore them to death!

I've been looking around and quite like the Fairfax & Favor tan chelsea boots, but was just wondering if any of you lovely people had a pair and would be able to tell me what they are like, how they wear etc.

I am VERY fussy about my boots, I've spent hours trawling through websites like office and schuh etc, looked at Topshop, River Island, and these lovely suede ones are the only ones I have liked! Any other suggestions are welcome, brown, real leather/suede, plain, classic chelsea boots.

Thanks in advance!

I have a pair of Carvella Slow leather Chelsea boots in tan. Got them a couple of years ago and I love them! Wearing well, (could do with a clean tbh) and I wear them with everything. If I knew how to post a link I would!
Ooo but I think I may have added a photo.....

Thank you PacificDogwad, had a good browse but unfortunately all the ones I liked were men's shoes and I have little feet Blush

Yes, size is a bit hit and miss.

I find it helps my disappointment levels (if not my credit card) if I set the size filter first...

I've just bought my third pair of these from Clarks. So comfy and they come in a wide fit too.

A little bit off topic MsAdorabelle but I don't suppose you ever had the burgandy ones and if so did you manage to keep/restore the colour on them? Mine are very faded and I am thinking I may need to replace them but as they are perfect apart from the colour, I was wondering if they could be brought back to their original colour. (I use a shoe cream to protect them).

HoHumming no just the tan ones and they've faded a bit. I just polish them. They lose that nubuck finish but they still look alright.

They're just so comfy!
